Abstract

En este trabajo se analiza la política fiscal en Colombia y la postura del gobierno frente a la crisis internacional (2008-2009). Utilizando una regla de política se concluye que la política fiscal discrecional ha sido procíclica, ha reducido su volatilidad en los últimos anos y ha sido consecuente con la restricción presupuestaria intertemporal. La evidencia también indica que la autoridad fiscal no disenó un programa contra-cíclico discrecional para compensar los efectos de la crisis y que esperó a que operaran los estabilizadores automáticos en la recuperación, parasuperar los desajustes fiscales de la coyuntura
